This photo is a gift for Eleanor. I hope she finds it helpful to find her true North.

This weekend I should be making jam for Christmas gifts, and probably some cakes in a jar as well... to give to work friends. But, you know, that's if I get around to it. I will definitely be taking some photos and making journals. I have a radio interview coming up on January 29 about my craft and my business. I will post the details on here as it comes closer. It's an internet radio show, so I hope you can all get a chance to join. In the meantime, I really should come up with a name! A few suggestions have come may way, and I've thought of some as well. I just need to see what feels right.

Today while I'm at work, I will upload some photos to my kodak site... I am such a procrastinator! You know... when I think about what I want to be when I grow up... here's what I get:

Self-employed

Utilizing my creativity

Making my own hours

Enriching lives

That's it in a nutshell. So... I want to sell my journals and photography and have it sustain me. I know in my heart that it's possible. So, at this point, I need to do the work to make it happen. Pictures are being taken by the hundreds. I have quite a inventory of journals on hand. I've started writing a business plan in my head, and it will be put on paper early in 2009. I've done research for professional printing of pictures and business cards. I have been researching marketing venues. I have been taking a photography course to improve my photos. (Dad, I will submit some homework this weekend)

Today I'm going to be researching some new binding stitches. Might switch it up a bit and have a larger variety of journals.

Eleanor says, "You've been so kind to me, and to my Biographer, Robyn. Thank you for this photo gift. I'll have my Biographer save the image, so that I can find my 'True North' anytime I please. This really IS wonderful!"
